I came across a news article about two elderly German men that escaped from a nursing home in order to attend a heavy metal concert.

When the nursing home realized the gentlemen were missing, they called the police. The police located both men at the concert at 3:00 in the morning and drove them back to the facility in a police car.

My first reaction – I want to be like those guys when I am old.

I want to still have the desire to escape in the night, to attend concerts, to feel wild, to bend rules, to express my individuality, to cause trouble, and to make people shake their heads in wonder.

Joey is probably 9 or 10 years old. As a young dog, Joey would run for hours. However, that is no longer the case. Joey still runs, plays, and wrestles with his brothers. He just gets tired faster and needs more time to rest.

Joey may be an old dog, but he is still spunky. Like they say, you can’t keep a good dog down.
